Stewart County is now StormReady!

On October 24, 2011, Stewart County, Tennessee became the latest StormReady community in Middle Tennessee! National Weather Service Warning Coordination Meteorologist Tom Johnstone was on hand in Dover, Tennessee to present Stewart County Emergency Management Agency Director Clint Mathis with the official StormReady designation.

Communities can become StormReady by meeting certain National Weather Service standards on communications, NWS information reception, hydrometeorological monitoring, local warning dissemination, community preparedness, and administration. StormReady communities are better prepared to save lives from the onslaught of severe weather through advanced planning, education and awareness. No community is storm proof, but StormReady can help communities save lives.
